George Takei as a child was incarcerated with his family in the U.S. camps among more than 120,000 Japanese Americans who were taken from their homes in West Coast states and detained in camps because of their ancestry. His family was held in the Santa Anita, Rohwer and Tule Lake camps. He has been active in camp memorial/preservation efforts.

For more on the history of the incarceration generally, the Densho Encyclopedia is a good resource: https://encyclopedia.densho.org/contents/

Apparently we're a testbed again.

Just talked with a neighbor who has a headache and is not appreciative.

Don't know if everyone has caught on that "This is a friendly reminder" messages should be used sparingly, as they may be taken as implying the future possibility of an unfriendly reminder.

This about crypto donations, which you criticized at the time? https://techcrunch.com/2022/01/06/mozilla-foundation-crypto/

Or is there some AI thing that's part of their daily work in a more internal way than donations?

@gwozniak @daniel @jwz

Yeah, wondered that. What AI is Mozilla into?

And as to the meaning of "legacy," yes, they do frequently express hope for a bequest, and their Office of Gift Planning would be glad to help set up a charitable remainder trust. https://alumni.harvard.edu/college/college-giving/gift-planning/gifts-that-pay

And PDFs often need to be hand-signed. And, because facts never entirely fit forms, PDF forms need to be annotated in ways that take either extra unprovided software or handwritten notes. But a scary proportion of people now don't have home printers.

Is anyone else having an issue where it's possible to see one's own follows and followers from within Settings but clicking on the numbers in the profile gets an error screen? And, no, I didn't click the box in Settings to hide the info. Confused. Any help? @Gargron
